hard journey in soft progress
& the whip & the lash
of the rain & wind slash
are a dream
ARE a dream ?
or a motivational tool
such a challenge
such a trial
no - audition !
in this supermarket cotton cocoon
~
no high flying possible
in the crescent corner cutaway
until it is
& IT IS
in our lawn-wedge shipshape of home
flanked by arthurs
& small & angry dogs
~
&
when i wake
i wake sure
so SURE
that i am opposite myself
waking on a sofa
where a sofa & i
are not there
in
the
dream mirror hiccup
of
the
long barleycorn exit
